Sesame Street has changed since it first hit the airwaves back in 1969.

You've probably already heard that Alaina Reed, aka Sesame Street's beloved Olivia, passed away. And if you're one of those old fogies who knew and loved Sesame Street back in its Old School days, the days of Bob and Gordon and Luis and Maria and Olivia, well, that would have been sad news for you.
